• JAMIE CHADWICK and LIA BLOCK will pilot the legendary Williams FW14B at this July’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, joining team principal James Vowles and Nigel Mansell himself behind the wheel of the 1992 championship-winning machine. For CHADWICK, fresh off her historic European Le Mans Series victory as the first woman to take an outright win, this represents another milestone moment at the venue where she first drove an F1 car.
• The pairing demonstrates Williams’ commitment to showcasing their rising female talent alongside motorsport legends. CHADWICK brings the credibility of recent race wins while BLOCK represents the future through F1 Academy, creating a powerful narrative around women’s progression in the sport. Both drivers will experience the FW14B’s groundbreaking active suspension technology that dominated 1992 with 10 victories from 16 races.
• CHADWICK’s personal connection to Goodwood runs deep – her first exposure to F1 came as a 10-year-old spectator at the festival, making this drive a full-circle moment in her career. Her recent European Le Mans breakthrough proves she belongs among the elite drivers trusted with Williams’ most precious racing artifact, while BLOCK’s inclusion signals the team’s investment in the next generation of female racers.
